Imagine (Lister plugin for viewing img files) v. 1.5.3 (May 21 2024)

Well, there's always the TC way to prevent a plugin from loading a specific file type:

Code: Select all

x_detect="MULTIMEDIA & (EXT!="MP4" & EXT!="MKV")"

Hi,
Any ideas ... how to fix it, please?

For example, the following setting can be made temporarily:

Configuration > Options... > Edit/View > Configure internal viewer... > tab "Multimedia" > Define view method by file type... >
Add... > *.mp4 > OK > click on '+' 4 Image/Multimedia > mmedia.wlx64 > OK, OK, OK, OK > CM_EXIT 13

Another possibility:
I have not defined the file extension .MP4 for Imagine.

wincmd.ini - [ListerPlugins]

Code: Select all

5=%COMMANDER_PATH%\Plugins\wlx\Imagine\Imagine.wlx
5_detect="MULTIMEDIA & ext="AVIF"|ext="BMP"|ext="JPG"|ext="JPE"|ext="JPEG"|ext="JP2"|ext="J2K"|ext="PNG"|ext="GIF"|ext="TIF"|ext="TIFF"|ext="PSD"|ext="TGA"|ext="PCX"|ext="PCD"|ext="WMP"|ext="WMF"|ext="EMF"|ext="AAI"|ext="JXR"|ext="WDP"|ext="DICOM"|ext="DCM"|ext="WEBP"|ext="PBM"|ext="PPM"|ext="HEIC"|ext="HEIF"|ext="ICO"|ext="CUR"|ext="LBM"|ext="ANI"|ext="FLI"|ext="DNG"|ext="RAW"|ext="CRW"|ext="CR2"|ext="NEF"|ext="ORF"|ext="ARW"|ext="DCR"|ext="MRW"|ext="NRW"|ext="PEF"|ext="RAF"|ext="SRF"|ext="X3F"|ext="MEF"|ext="SRW"|ext="3FR"|ext="MDC"|ext="RW2"|ext="ERF"|ext="MOS"|ext="KDC"|ext="SR2"|ext="CR3"|ext="SVG""

The TC internal viewer can play mp4 without problems
if the LAV filters are configured as suggested.

Dalai,
Thanks, yes, adjusting the detect string fixed it.

tuska,
Thank you, but that does not really restore the previous functionality.

Code: Select all

2_detect="MULTIMEDIA & EXT!="MP4""

I updated to 1.1.7 and suddenly Imagine tries (and fails) to play mp4 videos? Any ideas what happened and how to fix it, please?

Code: Select all

2=%COMMANDER_PATH%\Plugins\Lister\Imagine\Imagine.wlx
2_detect="MULTIMEDIA"

Hi Roman,

you probably also installed the new Imagine plugin AVIF, which erroneously tries to load files with the extensions .AVI and .MP4. Either remove the AVIF plugin until an update with a fix becomes available or add the following to your imagine detection string:

Code: Select all

2_detect="multimedia&!(ext="AVI"|ext="MP4")"

Additionally, I added GIF to Imagine's exclusion string as Imagine tends to crash often on animated GIF files, killing TC along with it.

[deus-ex]

how to fix it, please

Code: Select all

2=%COMMANDER_PATH%\Plugins\Lister\Imagine\Imagine.wlx
2_detect="MULTIMEDIA & EXT!="MP4""

Your example won't work, the exclusion string is missing the parentheses.

petermad,
Thanks to you as well.

Yes indeed I did, thank you.

Parentheses is not necessary - try it yourself.

Here the parentheses is necessary though:

Code: Select all

x_detect="MULTIMEDIA & !(EXT="MP4" | EXT="MKV")"

Here the parentheses is not necessary:

Code: Select all

x_detect="MULTIMEDIA & EXT!="MP4" & EXT!="MKV""

Just found some other formats that Imagine tries to open: .m4a, .m4v and .mov

So I suggest this detect string:

Code: Select all

x_detect="MULTIMEDIA & !(EXT="MP4" | EXT="M4V" | EXT="M4A" | EXT="MOV")"

I saw in previous posts that .mkv and .avi are suggested for exclusion, but here by me, Imagine does not try to open .mkv and .avi files.

Ah yes, you're correct. I wasn't aware that you could define multiple exclusions without the need for parentheses.
I just learned that Imagine's AVID plugin also grabs the *.MOV file extension when it shouldn't, so here's my updated detection string if you want to keep the AVIF plugin. This string excludes AVI, GIF, MKV, MOV, and MP4 from loading in Imagine:

Code: Select all

0_detect="multimedia&ext!="AVI"&ext!="GIF"&ext!="MKV"&ext!="MOV"&ext!="MP4""

EDIT: The exclusion string keeps growing, just added MKV.

[deus-ex]

I saw in previous posts that .mkv and .avi are suggested for exclusion, but here by me, Imagine does not try to open .mkv and .avi files.

Here it tries to load the mentioned extensions: AVI, MKV, MOV, MP4

Maybe it is just my avi and mkv samples, could you try if your Imagine tries to open these two files:

Issues with MP4 files are caused by the new HEIF plugin.
I fixed the problems with the HEIF plugin and uploaded it to v0.0.2.

[deus-ex]

I fixed the problems with the HEIF plugin and uploaded it to v0.0.2.

Confirmed, all the mentioned video extensions (AVI, M4A, M4V, MKV, MP4, MOV) do work again as expected and are not taken by the HEIF plugin anymore.

So the issue originated from the HEIF plugin. I tried a temporary fix by just removing the AVIF plugin which worked. But as you write in the plugin description, the HEIF plugin requires the AVIF plugin to properly function.

Thank you for the quick fix, nyam.
